Joris/Peyrafitte @ Poetry Project NYC
The Poetry Project NY, United StatesDomopoetics is the name Joris & Peyrafitte give to 34 years of daily practices in transforming &
intertwining their lives and works, be it through writing, painting, video, physical conditioning, cooking and all other shared household activities.
Karstic refers to the geological phenomena of dissolution and transformation at work in the formation of superficial or underground limestone topographies. Here it is taken literally and figuratively as nature and cave explorations are an important part of their process.
